Question
My Beagle has very dry ears and are scabby ,scaly and will bleed sometimes at the site of the scaly scabs when he itches them,& they itch and seem to be very sore. What can I do for him using alternative medicine?
Thanks, Eileen
Hi Eileen
It sounds like it could be mange, but without a proper vet diagnosis it is very difficult to tell. You may be better off going to the vet for a correct diagnosis. Then you can focus on a natural treatment plan to alleviate the condition.
You may want to have a look at some websites for information on remedies that may be of assistance once you get the diagnosis.

Sorry I can't be of more help, but it is difficult to recommend something without know exactly what is going on.
Many thanks,
Silva.
